Sociologist. Activist. Development Worker. Obstacle Course Racer. Thinker. Ama Cabason started having crushes at seven years old in her frilly girly clothes. She didn’t know the word to describe that experience then but all that changed when she entered Catholic school. Here she realized the contradiction between the fire and brimstone lectures and the relaxed attitude toward lunchtime flirtations that happened among the girls in their school. Trying to balance her desire to live up to familial expectations and living her truth took time. Professionally, Ama deals with people with respect and opens up to those with a genuine desire to know and understand her as a person. In this way she not only lifts herself out of the messy muck of lesbophobia but also helps others by showing others how it’s done. This is Spartaa!
